Full Description
January 2013. Norfolk NMP.
Cropmarks of probable medieval to post medieval boundaries are visible on aerial photographs (S1-S2) to the north of Cherry Tree Farm, Great Ellingham. The site is centred on TM 0183 9606. Although none of the boundaries mapped are depicted on the available historic maps, such as the 1900 Great Ellingham Tithe map (S3), they do have a close relationship with those that are. Although it may be worth noting that they do follow the ditches associated with Roman complex (NHER 9083) to the southwest and that Roman date material has been recovered from this field (NHER 56891). Other linear cropmarks visible within this area to the north of Cherry Tree Farm were dismissed as relating to modern field drains.
